Agent 798

The Force

I am a police officer. This means I do my best to keep New York's streets safe. So far I've arrested 5 people for murder, 7 speeders, 4 drunk drivers and 1 serial killer. The latter is why I was called into Sergeant's office earlier this morning.

'Sarah, come and sit down.' I did so and looked at the Sergeant expectantly. 'I have a job for you. There is something not many people know about. It's called Project G.E.N.T.A. I want you to join the Project. You will be covering a series of tasks for your country. And just to make it clear, no, you don't have a choice in the matter.' 'but...' I stuttered. 'I'm Canadian.'

'Fine, you have to serve your country's neighbour. go to this address on Monday in the uniform provided. The session starts at 8:00. Don't be late. Until then, you can go home.'

There is nothing I can do, so I go home, eat some food and dream about the bodies the last person I arrested caused to be empty. Sometimes, being an officer makes it hard to sleep. When I wake up it's Saturday and I wonder what Monday will bring me.
